Here is your chance to support the annual Washington State Senior Games,
held at various venues in the
greater South Puget Sound area, July 22 – 28 (with a few sports
held earlier and some later). In order to make this happen, Washington
State Senior Games needs corporate sponsorship. As an all-volunteer
501 (c)(3) non-profit organization, with our main location in Olympia,
Washington, we are looking for help in funding this very worthy cause.
The 50+ demographic is the most widely represented and most affluent
group in the United States. It is also the fastest growing demographic
in the country. Someone will turn 50 every seven seconds for the next
six years. 55 million people in the US are over 55 years of age and
34 million are over 65 years old. These figures will double by 2030.
People over the age of 50 account for 43 percent of all US households.
One thing that a large number of this demographic have in common is
the bond they have created through sport and leading an active lifestyle.
As the senior population continues to grow the Washington State Senior Games
believe participation will also expand exponentially.
Washington State Senior Games offers a wide range of sponsorship opportunities.
Among the many benefits are:
-
Reaching a diverse active adult market throughout the entire State of Washington.
-
An extensive marketing campaign that includes print, internet and direct mail,
including a special section published in The Olympian and The Senior News
devoted exclusively to the Senior Games just prior to the beginning of the events.
-
Naming and advertising opportunities throughout the games at
each of the sites and at supporting events.
Everybody wins, sponsors, seniors and our community. The Senior Games is a
great way for seniors, volunteers, and others involved to have fun and get to know each
other. The Washington State Senior Games program highlights an important cause: that seniors have
become well educated about the benefits of a healthy, active lifestyle. There is no
question that the exercise, competition and social interaction offered by the Washington
State Senior Games contributes to a longer, healthier, higher quality life.
We invite you to consider your participation in this annual event. Please
give serious consideration to our funding request today. For further information on
